The Feeling:
Swedenborg's Quotes

To inherit land, signify to possess the heavenly kingdom, which is here predicated of the Lord's human essence, for as to his divine essence, he was possessor of the universe, consequently, of the heavenly kingdom from eternity. - Swedenborg (1817).

The celestial angels perceive the Word such as it is in an internal sense, as to affection; whereas the spiritual angels perceive it, such as in an internal sense as to thing.
- Swedenborg (A. C. 2157).

The reason why time appears to be something is owing to the mind's reflecting on those things which are not objects of affection, or love, consequently, which are irksome.
- Swedenborg (3827).

The Lord is always the sun, and essential light, but before the wicked he appears as darkness, for the Lord appears to every one according to his state; and so it is in respect to the church when it is in a dark state. Sleeping, when spoken of the Lord, signifies his apparent absence. - Swedenborg (A. E. 514)

The New Church is the crown of all churches that have hitherto been in the world, because it will worship one visible God, in whom is the Invisible God, as the soul is in the body.
- Swedenborg (U. T. 787).
